Victimizers and Their Victims: Children's Conceptions of the Mixed Emotional Consequences of Moral Transgressions.
Arsenio, William F.; Kramer, Rivka
Child Development, v63 n4 p915-27 Aug 1992
In two experiments, children observed pictures of moral transgressions. Most children expected victimizers to feel positive emotions and victims to feel negative emotions. However, in the second experiment, 4 year olds attributed extremely positive emotions to victimizers, whereas 8 year olds attributed less positive emotions to victimizers. (BC)
